Rockrat,

I have an 1895 in that caliber. I use the 358318 Lyman HP sized .358" with 25.0 gr of VV-N-130 or Hercules (Alliant) Reloder 7. Good for 2"-3" groups at 100 yards with iron sights and death on PET bottles filled with water.

There's molds for some lighter bullets more suited maybe for the .35 Remington but I haven't had a chance to try them yet.

The Hornady .405 brass is fantastic stuff for forming into .35 WCF. Didn't lose a case in 50, and only annealed at the very end of the procedure out of a sense of duty. Didn't really seem to need it.
